Output is generated dynamically based on environment variables such as GNUSTEP_CONFIG_FILE and GNUSTEP_MAKEFILES, though default values for these are generated when the tool is configured/installed.  Output is primarily the locations in which various GNUstep resources are installed, but also provide flags used to build different types of GNUstep project.
